Event Date
The human voice rises up, necessity and courage erupting deep in the soul, wielding words of power against oppressive forces. The spoken word rises, unites, fights and ultimately heals. Distinguished poet activists Dr. Ayodele Nzinga — artist, educator and poet laureate of Oakland — and Tanaya Winder — educator, poet and artist from an intertribal lineage of Southern Ute, Pyramid Lake Paiute, Diné and Duckwater Shoshone Nations — will read their poetry, talk about their work and answer questions.
The 2021-22 book project features a yearlong program around How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi, and the overall theme of social justice in practice. See the calendar.
